We’re joined by journalist Devin Thomas O’Shea. Devin has been published in The Nation, Slate, Jacobin, and Lapham’s Quarterly—among quite a few others.We talk about some St. Louis lore, the 1877 Railroad Strike, the short-lived workers' revolution, and the local gentry's revenge after the strike was put down. We wrap things up with a run past some of the more recent creatures to crawl out of Missouri politics.Find Devin online:Twitter: https://twitter.com/devintosheaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/devintosheaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@devintosheaMusic in this episode:Eaters - Electrify (CC-BY)Eaters - Eaters - Back 2 Formula (CC-BY)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬ ⛬For $5 a month, get an extra couple premium, subscriber only episodes every month or so.https://patreon.com/wetwiredCheck out the Wetwired Discord.https://discord.gg/fr62mpUy5cFollow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/wetwiredpod and Instagram at https://instagram.com/wetwiredpod
